Pumas UNAM<\/a> host Club Leon<\/a> at Estadio Olimpico Universitario on Sunday, September 6 (2:00 PM ET \/ 1:00 PM CT \/ 11:00 AM PT).<\/p>\n

Pumas UNAM have no fresh fitness concerns to flag, and that should keep Robert Osmar Morales Benitez central to the home side’s build-up play \u2014 the midfielder has racked up 525 minutes, 8 chances created, and 14 shots so far this season. Olavio Vieira dos Santos Junior offers the finishing touch, with 3 goals from just 381 minutes on the field. Club Leon come in with a similarly settled group of their own: Daniel Felipe Arcila Rojas leads the visitors’ attack with 3 goals and 10 chances created from 390 minutes, while Jordi Cortizo de la Piedra, level on 10 chances created himself, adds 2 goals of his own from open play.<\/p>\n

Neither side arrives with the free-scoring form to suggest fireworks at Estadio Olimpico Universitario. Pumas UNAM have 8 points from 6 games this season (2 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses) and a goal difference of 0, numbers that speak to just how tight their matches have been. Club Leon have been marginally the better side, with 10 points and a +2 goal difference from the same 6 matches, though their most recent trip ended in a 1-1 draw at Atlante FC. Expect a cagey afternoon in Mexico City, the kind of game settled by one moment rather than an exchange of blows.<\/p>\n
